Amazing that the #West-#Eastern #Divan #Orchestra is still functioning and coming to the #BBC #Proms. It must be very difficult to hold the #Palestinian and #Israeli #musicians together. A tribute to those who keep the dialog going.

There are many many versions of #AChristmasCarol out there. But this is my absolute all time favourite, a #BBCR3 + #BBCR4 co-production that has lush music, incredible singing (#CityOfIron) and a brilliant acting cast.
Somehow manages to bring #London of the 1840s to life...
